This is gorgeous. Such a pretty car. Looks brilliant with the roof down.
I've literally seen 5 or 6 of these otr since release. Shame.
Looks so much better on the coil overs. The paint jobs lovely too. Especially in the sun. Gorgeous
I have a pioneer head unit I'd probably sell. Had it in my Clio for 2 years. It's dab ready and plenty of light colours to choose to match your dash.
Was about 120 when I bought it and it's in a1 condition. Fitted and never removed fascia again. Lol
Doesn't come with wiring loom though. Comes...
It's just normal paint. Be sure to prime it well! 3 primer coats, 2 or 3 colour and a few lacquer coats.
As it's just inlet manifold, only heat it gets is general heat in the engine bay. Did a track day and it got very hot in the bay and paint looked perfect still
Yeah I guessed it wasn't permanent [emoji41]
I did a similar thing to my astra vxr, I zip tied it to the steering column just to check it was boosting correct then removed it.
Yeah. That looks spot on!
I was going to do the same but wanted to retain the breather (without spending 70 on a silicone forge one with breather take off)
Looks much better with pipercross. Also key the alloy pipe lightly and use an etch primer and satin black it.
I used crackle paint on mine and it looked s**t but I couldn't be arsed to change it! Smarten it right up all in black.
Lovely! My 2nd favourite colour [emoji41]
Looks a good purchase and the shifter is a great mod! I loved mine. Essential purchase imo. [emoji106]
I may get another one day...
Fair play Rob that's lovely... Monaco and flamer are lovely colours on 172, the Monaco definitely looks smarter imo.
Twin pipes looking perfect! One thing I never liked on 172 is the back end as it looked a bit pants with no exhaust considering its a 2.0... A little underwhelming.
Silvers...
You'd have liked some of my dad's cars very much. He had a few capri and escorts.... Hate him for having no pictures of any though.
He did show me what his capri looked like in a retro Ford mag once. Was the 3.0 one which he had sprayed in blue and white touring car livery. Similar to this IIRC...
Doom beta this weekend. Anyone can get it. Seems a good blast. MP only though.
I'm actually just looking forward to the single player aspect, it looks balls out fun.
I remember commenting on your astra ages ago. Love it [emoji106]
This threads dangerous. Seriously liking the thought of having a grey corsa gsi with a redtop in it! [emoji41]
@Phase1sr Are those tsw venom wheels? [emoji5] classic 90s
Cracking looking golf. Nice colour too
Clio Williams has to be one of the best looking. The kit wider than normal on that one above? It looks great though bar the slightly too large alloys.
Looking at nova on eBay and seen this. Great, clean looking Sleeper. Proper grandad colour!

Also spotted this sexy nova saloon. I thought all these style cars were burning in hell by now...
I think this thread definitely confirms that older hatches are infinitely cooler and better looking than their modern counterparts!
Some of those are awesome.
Now feel an urge to buy an old hatch, even though I wasn't fussed on the mk2. Lol
Love it. Such cool cars. My dad used to rally an imp before my time. He has pictures somewhere, in black and white he's that old! Lol
I'll see if I can get some off him when I see him
